Beast

Description

Welcome to the Northern Expanse, a place where nature is still unexplored,mystical, and dangerous. When the humans first arrived, they thought they foundan unspoiled paradise, filled with bountiful forests, lakes swimming with fish,and cold freshwater flowing from the mountains. But as their settlementsexpanded and the surrounding forests grew thinner, nature itself pushed back.Great creatures known as Beasts emerged, and with their fangs, claws, andmystical powers, they proved an incredible threat to the humans. To protect thesettlements, humans enlisted specialised hunters, tasked with tracking andkilling the Beasts before too many of their kin perished…

The Beast uses a deck of direction cards to move over forests, swamps, andcaverns, using guile and deceit to hide its track from the hunters. However,whenever a hunter moves over a location where the Beast has previously been, atrail appears. Only when a hunter searches a location or the Beast itselfattacks an unsuspecting target, is the Beast's actual position revealed. Moreso, each hunter has but one chance of searching each round, making it a tenseand difficult decision. Hunters seldom have full information on whether thetrail they’re pursuing contains the Beast’s actual location, or if thetrail has already gone cold.

Each action you perform in this game is done by playing a card from your hand(up to a maximum of two cards per turn). This means that if a player wants tosearch, attack, or move, they need to have a card in their hand that lets themdo that. Before each round, both hunters and the Beast participate in a draftfor the most important cards. All action cards can be used by both Beast andhunters alike.

To win this game, you either need to cooperate every step of the way if youplay as a hunter, or skillfully outmaneuver your opponents if you play as Beast.On their own, hunters are never stronger than the Beast. Only when hunterscommunicate, strategise and combine their actions can they bring down the Beastbefore it’s too late.
